I am a Civil Engineer with 14 years’ experience in integrated water management, strategy development and WSUD design gathered during a career spanning across the public and private sector. I am passionate about the design and implementation of innovative water servicing solutions that deliver high value community outcomes while protecting and enhancing the natural environment. I have developed my strong analytical and problem-solving skills from broad exposure to development industry standards and practices. Leveraging these qualities, I have developed tools, authored guidelines and manuals and delivered training to support industry in designing and delivering IWM solutions. I have also led the delivery of several major IWM Plans and WSUD masterplans across Victoria, incorporating adaptive IWM pathway planning approaches.My professional experience includes the creation, review and delivery of Melbourne Water Development Services Schemes (DSS’s), through which I have gained a strong appreciation of the challenges and complexity of drainage system design, implementation and opportunities to incorporate integrated outcomes within the Scheme framework. My technical approach and strategic mindset has been developed and refined through design of over 40 new DSS’s and authorship of numerous stormwater management strategies for new developments throughout Victoria and nationally.
